Amazing! Just somehow broke mine off this morning and instantly panicked thinking about costs of calling in a plumber 😂. Thought I’d check UA-cam first and this came up. Gave it a try and it worked. You’re indeed a lifesaver 🙂

No problem.
Why can't all instructional videos be this clear and simple?!
and concise
To be honest, you can't really complicate a radiator valve
because they need 10minutes video to have tons of ads to earn money.. The longer the video is, the more profitable it is.
Thank you! I’m a support worker, myself and the person I’m supporting just managed this ourselves with no experience and we’re very pleased with ourselves
Great job! Well done.
This is the second video of yours that has given me confidence to attempt things I otherwise would have paid a man for. The extent of my plumbing knowledge is that water is wet so something as basic as this is super helpful. I wasn’t sure if I was going to take the valve off and water would go everywhere! Saved me a packet thank you!
Excellent!
Single lady fixing my own valve! WINNER!
Good on you. Keep up the good work. Ladies can do it as well as men.
I did it too on my own. So easy to do.
Congratulations.
Gender has no play madam. It just read the book and it goes as planned. :D
Congratulations for being a functional grown human
Are you free Saturday night?
Had a panic this morning after breaking mine off by accident, glad to find a video like this to ease my stress. All fixed now, thank you for the informative video!
No problem.
Thank you for making this video!! Very clear and easy to understand. My radiator wasn't working, but after watching your video and taking the valve off, I realised the pin underneath was jammed in. A couple of minutes with a pair of pliers, and my radiator is now lovely and warm again! Thank you!
You're welcome!
You, sir are an absolute legend. Saved me so much hassle, thank you.
No problem.
I don't have much money and I try and help out my elderly mom with repairs. Thank you for all your tips.
That's great!
Another single lady saved by this guy. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome! Thanks Marie.
Hero! All other articles seemed to want me to replace the whole valve system, when I just needed the head. Ordered a new one now to fit tomorrow. Thanks!
No problem.
Thank you so much for this. The valve came away in my wife’s hand this morning and I couldn’t work out how to put it back on. Your video explained it really clearly and now it’s all fixed. Once again, thank you very much.
No problem.
Thank you for all of your videos, they have been helpful to no end for me and my partner whilst renovating upstairs! Thank you so much!
No problem Harriet.
Thank you! Im a student and I just moved to Europe all by myself, so had no idea how these worked and nobody to ask. I appreciate the clear instructions. 👍
No problem Chloe.
This is everything i needed. As i was regulating the valve, trying to get the right temperature, it came off. I didn't know how to screw it back on and thought i had broken it. After watching your demonstration, i was able to put it back on!! 👍🏼
That`s great.
Many years ago I had to do things with my radiator like turn it off in a room, decorate, or just have it off as a room was being used for storage. I'm back at a video of yours again, this time figuring out how to put what I was legitimately going to Google as "number temperature knob thingy" at one point.
I've got high functioning autism, and the approach to some simple things can feel initially daunting, despite having been to university and all that. Your videos are simple, to the point, and with a kind face that says it all.
Thanks for being a whole lot of help. Other UA-camrs overcomplicate things for some reason.
Thanks you very much for your very kind comments. Al and Jan.
OMG it really is that simple! Life saver, thank you so much for posting!
No problem.
Thank you for your videos. I used a couple today to fix a radiator. The best tool I used today by far.
Cheers
Liam
No problem Liam.
Two minutes long video and in another 7 minutes i had my new valve installed :))! Thank you Sir for your helpful video!
No problem.
Fantastic video, thanks Al! One of the clearest, easiest explanations I've come across.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much! It really is simple! My poor boyfriend had been sleeping next to a radiator on full blast because the valve head came off and we didn’t know how to put it back on. Great, easy, simple video.
No problem
Thank you soo much Sir, I love UA-cam!! 😭 I was getting frustrated and struggling to figure it out on my own until I searched it up. Thought I was going to need to call someone for it 😅 but I did it and I’m relieved now 😌 Thanks again. 👌🏾
You are most welcome
This is literally the most helpful video I have ever seen on the internet! Thank you, thank you!
You're very welcome!
Smashing! Clear and simple instructions, I feel confident to tackle this myself now. Thanks.

Couldn't believe how simple that was - I have always been hesitant with plumbing jobs but this was simple! NICE
Thanks! 👍
Super helpful--got me over the hump of believing I could do this, and I love Dereton's smile and gentle manner!
No problem Jack.
Your videos are brilliant - I'm captain chaos when it comes to anything DIY and you always explain things in the best way.

No problem Josh.
Hey thanks, lovely. Nearly all of ours basically fell off within 6 months of us moving in to our place - I suspect they hadn't been touched in years and the heat got to the plastic. I imagined it was all far too alarming to fix myself (despite having done loads of other fixes in the house!). Now, I shall! Thanks again xx
No problem
